[03:17] i don't know how to make it knows it's getting closer to its code
[03:40] Find a step size that doesnt scan itself
[04:02] i'm trying to make it check for itself
[04:06] shouldn't this skip the the jmp instruction

[15:59] Hi sf!
[15:59] How is your nano generator getting on? :-)
[16:02] It works quite well, but now I have to find a form, that won't be immediately killed.
[16:02] spl/mov/mov/mov/djn and spl/spl/mov/mov/djn don't work very well on the current hill
[16:03] Now I'm trying spl/mov/mov/mov/mov
[16:03] try mov mov mov spl mov ;-)
[16:03] any special reason?
[16:04] specifically mov mov mov spl -3 mov.i #... , 1
[16:06] I mean, have you already tried it on the hill or is it just an idea
[16:07] Did they give out a certificate? http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/index.asp?ID=53241
[16:07] Fortunately they have now removed the "beat this record" link
[16:07] I have tried it and it got on the hill

[16:30] no, windows leads to suffering..
[16:31] No, windows keep the room, I'm in, warm!

[16:33] Hi aFlag
[16:34] hello
[16:34] bvowk: Maybe you should start thinking of invading another country for some more water ;-)
[16:34] try Finland. they have many lakes
[16:34] -_-
[16:34] no, we've still got more than the americans..
[16:35] they've been eyeing it for a while..
[16:35] heh are you guys in water shortage? :P
[16:35] there are actually more lakes in Sweden than in Finland
[16:35] its just been dry here lately..
[16:35] Mizcu: you think that the americans know that? :)
[16:35] (good luck to the people who have calculated all the lakes)

[16:38] any new 94b projects in progress?

[16:38] My birthday in 2 days also
[16:38] :)
[16:39] so, we need to make you KOTH on 94nop by that time
[16:39] Haha
[16:39] We?
[16:39] Yay make me a warrio
[16:40] :)
[16:40] I know HOW to get to the top
[16:40] It was something I wanted to work on
[16:40] It's name will be Skysplitter
[16:40] a scanner?
[16:40] But been too busy
[16:40] Eww no
[16:40] Get outta town
[16:40] : P
[16:40] S/I
[16:41] Hell, my old stone could get on now
[16:41] Muh less papers
[16:41] All scanners
[16:41] ok. so, what's your plan? for the s/i?
[16:41] First it will stone.
[16:41] And then it will imp.
[16:41] :{P
[16:42] like airbag does?
[16:42] (he has a moustache)
[16:42] that was a joke
[16:42] Just a standard s/i should beat most of those scanners..
[16:42] well, it doesn't have to be :)
[16:42] btw, not so easy to make a good s/i on the hill
[16:42] almost impossible with Aimps
[16:42] standard is bad, creative is good
[16:43] Yeah but I'm noob
[16:43] so... ... most new scanners are somewhat resistant to stones
[16:43] and something like float/double could even defeat most sai and sbi
[16:43] Float double...?
[16:44] a double scanner of mine. Fizmo had one, too... I forgot the name, though
[16:44] Ah I see
[16:44] I had an idea for a scanner
[16:44] Roy said he didnt think it'd ever been done...
[16:44] So I might try that eventually
[16:44] btw, did you hold that presentation that you were talking about?
[16:45] how did it go?
[16:48] Join: Roy joined #corewars
[16:48] *deep silence*
[16:48] Hi Roy
[16:49] * Roy is here to break that silence :)
[16:49] hi all
[16:49] I'll probably ask some people at my university tomorrow for the possibility of me holding a presentation of corewar there. afaik, there is a good chance for them to say: YES :) . If some people get interested, it may even produce some new beginners. I'm only a little nervous about preparing it to fit into 1*one hour or 2*one hour.
[16:49] Hi Roy.
[16:49] * Nenad says abracadabra
[16:49] Roy: CE2? :)
[16:49] Only I'm -very- slow, my thumb is messed up so I can't really type :(
[16:49] I'll write it tonight, fiveop
[16:50] and post it tomorrow night, when I get online
[16:50] about?
[16:50] I have to write a presentation in about 60 min this evening..! So no time for CE2, but don't let me stop you all :)
[16:50] Nenad: that's something I will possibly try, too.
[16:50] it will have introduction to stones and 94b hill report + interview with datagram, if he agrees, about his participation at CSEC2005 and his success.
[16:51] Since I see most people have problems writing x86 asm in on subject, I was urged to propose everyone to play corewars :P
[16:51] to encourage beginners to participate
[16:51] I'll probably just copy the wiki entry and read that out loud... presentation done
[16:51] :) they would expell me then
[16:51] Presentation about what?
[16:51] Nenad: for what?
[16:51] a presentation about corewar
[16:52] why?
[16:52] well, if I did what Roy said
[16:52] Its going to be about SQL probably, it must have something to do with the project we made for school
[16:52] ah
[16:52] So either RUP / UML / PHP or SQL, and the last seems easiest to talk about 7min
[16:52] if they agree, I will have not only some students, but also some assistants and proffesors in the audience
[16:53] so, I'll have to try hard to make a good presentation
[16:53] I did that for all the ICT proffs (+/- 20) they liked my CW presentsation, but don't have time to lear/pleyt
[16:53] learn/play...
[16:53] grrr
[16:54] I think that I'll start with concepts in general - and only later go to syntax and examples
[16:54] I'll also emphasize digital life projects based on corewars - coreworld, tierra, avida and quantum coreworld and also evolution concept in corewar
[16:54] I'll go off again, can't type...hurts :-(

[16:56] :-(
[16:57] but you were real close to defeating him, that's for sure
[16:57] 1% wins off
[16:58] it seems that my HalfOfMoon did much better than I hoped for
[16:58] Yes, impressive :-)
[16:58] did Fizmo finally upload the warrior code?
[16:59] I didn't check all of them. Some were there
[16:59] oh. yes. :) they weren't when I first looked
[17:04] well, I've got to go now... see you later - probably tomorrow.
[17:04] * Nenad waves
[17:04] * sf waves
[17:04] btw, a question for datagram before I leave
[17:05] when will you be here for the CE2 interview? :)
[17:05] or just give me your email and I'll send you the questions.
[17:06] well, you just write it here when you get back, I read the logs

[18:56] i don't think imps are much effective
[18:56] stoners seems the most effective ones
[18:57] yes, imps alone aren't that good
[18:58] but the combination of imps with a stone or a paper is very good
[18:58] it turns at least lose into ties
[18:59] how come? isn't it better to drop spl bombs faster and use a djn loop for going sequentially through the core?
[18:59] not against papers
[19:00] heh. I'm back on the 94'nop, though, not for long...
[19:00] winning against paper with a stone isn't that easy
[19:02] There are some few published
